Patent attributes
A plug connector (100) includes an insulative housing (1) including a base portion (10) and a mating portion (12) extending from the base portion in a first mating direction, a number of contacts (2) received in the insulative housing, a circuit board (6) with a plurality of through holes (620) therein, and a number of wires (3) comprising a number of signal wires (31) and a number of power wires (32) respectively electrically connecting with the contacts. The contacts comprise a number of signal contacts (23) and a number of power contacts (21), the signal contacts are soldered with the circuit board. The signal wires are flatly soldered on the circuit board, the power wires are soldered with the contacts directly or electrically connected with the contacts by the circuit board. The signal wires are arranged to extend laterally along a second direction perpendicular to a first mating direction, the power wires are arranged to extend along a third direction perpendicular to the second direction.
